Well, this is the world people wanted. Oh well.
What "side" or sides are you referring to, specifically?

Women wanting equal pay protection IS NOT LIBERAL.
Women wanting the right to control,their own lives IS NOT LIBERAL.
Amending marriage to be more inclusive IS NOT LIBERAL.
Fair tax policy IS NOT LIBERAL.
Ending long costly war(s) IS NOT LIBERAL.
Seeking affordable healthcare for all US citizens IS NOT LIBERAL.

People confuse the term liberal with fairness and justice.
Fairness, protection, and justice for all people, as is stated in the US constitution, is not some liberal terminology.
To feel the issues above are liberal connected would be making a very bad mistake.

Liberalism did not win this race. Common ground won this race.
Something not liberal or conservative biased in any way.
Liberism didn't win it but we know conservatism lost it. Romney broke his neck to portray himself has "severely conservative". All those characteristics you listed, conservatives are against.
